Episode 22: What is a Sexual Health Plan?
Rethinking Porn Addiction - A Sexual Health Show
Now that we know the 6 Principles of Sexual Health, it's time to create our own Sexual Health Plan. Just like physical fitness, if we want to get healthy, it helps to develop a plan. The plan helps us move towards our goals, avoid damaging behaviors, and develop healthy habits. The plan typically involves some sort of support system. And our ability to succeed in following the plan means we need to have clarity around our values so that our plan is in alignment with them.

So we're having it here. Today we're talking about using the 6 Principles for Sexual Health as a framework for your sexual ethics.

Do you want to eradicate shame, and rebuild trust? Well, telling the truth (or not keeping secrets) is only ONE part of honesty.

What To Do When Someone Crosses Your Sexual Boundaries
info_outlineIf I were to ask you how to develop physical health, you'd probably say something like, "Eat healthy foods, exercise regularly, and get 8 hours of sleep."
You probably wouldn't say, "Don't get sick."
But when we talk about developing sexual health, typically all we focus on is avoiding "disease."
Staying away from the bad stuff...
But sexual health isn't just moving away from things you don't want.
It's moving towards things you DO want.
So, in this conversation, we're going to start talking about the fundamentals of sexual health... namely, the balance of safety and pleasure.
They are both important aspects of your sexual health, and it's important to talk about them together. We're excited for you to join us!
